About The Headcrook:
I am a 21 year-old college student who ocassionally writes videogame
fanfiction, but this is my first analysis of the Resident Evil timeline. I've
worked on this thing for about a year and a half and now I have finished...for
the time being. Aside from Street Fighter and some other games, I am a rabid
Resident Evil fan and decided to write this timeline in honor of the game. From
my friends, I heard that some other RE experts have designed their own
timelines, and those that have their own timelines can email me at
headcrook@yahoo.com for any questions you have.
The Timeline:
Late 18th-Early 19th century: English noblewoman Veronica Ashford founded the
Ashford family.
Sometime in 1939: James Marcus graduates from university.
Late 1940's (estimate, exact date unknown): Brian Irons is born.
1950 (estimate, exact date unknown): English noblemen Ozwell E. Spencer and
Edward Ashford (father of Alexander, grandfather of Alfred and Alexia) discover
the 'Mother Virus.'
1953: Kenneth Sullivan is born.
1957: Enrico Marini is born.
1960: Barry Burton and Albert Wesker are born.
Construction of Raccoon City begins at an undisclosed location in the American
Midwest (If I was doing the story, the ideal place for the location of Raccoon
City would possibly be Colorado, but then again, that's my opinion).
1961: Michael Warren, the future mayor of Raccoon City, arrives as an engineer.
He's the main person responsible for the city's electrical and cable car
systems.
1962: William Birkin is born.
1963: Brad 'Chickenheart' Vickers is born in Delucia (see Brad's Note--N64
version of Resident Evil).
Lord Ozwell Spencer begins construction on a mansion in the Raccoon Forest near
Raccoon City. The mansion is designed by a famous New York architect by the
name of George Trevor. The mansion takes five years to be built. The mansion
also has many secrets that only Spencer and Trevor know about.
1967, Friday, November 10: Lord Spencer invites Jessica Trevor and Lisa Trevor
(wife and daughter of George Trevor) to the nearly-completed Spencer Mansion
while George Trevor is away on business. Lisa plays the piano for the host, who
approves. Several days later, Lisa and Jessica Trevor disappear.
Monday, November 13: Trevor arrives three days later, and is notified by Lord
Spencer that his wife and daughter had gone off to visit an ailing relative.
Trevor doesn't give it a single thought, since he is reveling in his work.
Tuesday, November 14: While touring the mansion with Lord Spencer, he tells
Trevor about his plans to establish a major medical and pharmaceutical
conglomerate called the Umbrella Corporation. The mansion itself will be used
as a resort for Umbrella personnel.
Saturday, November 18: Four days later, Trevor begins to worry about his
family's whereabouts, not to mention upset because he can't find a telephone in
the mansion. While in the courtyard, he finds a tunnel (the one that leads to
the labs) and figures out that this was not in his plans. Before he could
investigate further, several security guards appear and 'escort' Trevor from
the courtyard, saying that he should never be alone.
Monday, November 20: Instead of the shotgun that his wife had given Lord
Spencer for his birthday, Trevor finds its rusted, broken counterpart in its
place. Aside from that, he becomes troubled when he can't reach his family. He
notifies Lord Spencer that he plans to join them the next day, and Spencer
tells him not to worry about it, since he says that Trevor will be seeing them
soon.
Tuesday, November 21: Trevor packs his bags and prepares to leave. Before he
can, however he is asked to come to the reception room (in other words, it's
the art room with the 'Cradle to Grave' puzzle), and is escorted there by one
of the courtyard guards. The courtyard guard notifies Trevor that his family is
dead and knocks him out with a sedative agent.
Friday, November 24: Four days has passed since Trevor was imprisoned within
the confines of the mansion. One of the guards who bring him food tells him
that he has to be silenced so that Lord Spencer only knows the mansion’s
secrets.
Monday, November 27: Trevor then escapes by means of a secret route he has
designed. He is locked out of the mansion's many rooms, since he does not have
any of the keys.
Tuesday, November 28: Trevor comes across one of the mansion's experiments,
which is a giant plant.
Thursday, November 30: Trevor discovers the underground laboratory through the
caves. He ponders of his wife and his daughter's fate and vows to escape.
1967, Tuesday, December 5: Trevor is still trapped within the mansion. Worse
yet, he is becoming dehydrated and hasn't eaten in several days.
The Special Tactics and Rescue Squad is established in New York City as a means
to counter occult terrorism.
Thursday, December 7: The Death of George Trevor. Trevor reaches a dead end. He
finds a tombstone with his name on it and discovers that it was all Spencer's
intention for him to reach his own grave. Begging forgiveness to his wife and
daughter, Trevor dies. Jessica Trevor is also killed and Lisa Trevor becomes
Umbrella's chief experiment for the next 30 years.
1967-1968: The Umbrella Corporation is established by Edward Ashford and Ozwell
Spencer as a front for their 'Mother Virus' research. In time, it becomes the
largest medical and pharmaceutical conglomerate in the world.
1968: Several cable cars are imported from Europe and are installed in Raccoon
City.
1970: Morpheus D. Duvall is born.
Edward Ashford's son Alexander (the future Nosferatu) discredits the Ashford
family by killing his father, thus putting complete control of Umbrella into
Spencer's hands. He then builds a research facility inside a mining post in the
frozen wastelands of the Antarctic so he can work on restoring back his
family's tarnished honor. Within the facility, there is also a mansion, which
is modeled after the Spencer Mansion back in Raccoon City.
1971: Joseph Frost is born.
Alexander discovers the gene that controls a human being's intelligence. He
takes a DNA sample from the remains of Veronica Ashford and extracts the
intelligence gene from her DNA. He implants the tampered genes inside the egg
of a surrogate mother and as a result, the twins Alfred and Alexia Ashford are
born.

1973: Christopher Redfield is born.
1975: Jillian Valentine, Richard Aiken and Bruce McGivern are born.

Mother Virus. He gives it the codename 'Progenitor.'
1976, Tuesday, March 23: James Marcus hears from Lord Spencer that he is
starting a company which will soon be Umbrella. Marcus could care less, just as
long as he can continue his research.
1976, Thursday, August 19: Lord Spencer asks James Marcus--who notices a change
of attitude in Spencer--to run the Arklay training facility. Marcus accepts,
mainly because it allows him to explore the 'Progenitor' virus.
1976, Tuesday, November 30: James Marcus is at odds with Lord Spencer, who sees
'Progenitor' only as a financial opportunity. Marcus realizes that it could
means trouble for his research if Spencer's influence begins to grow and
realizes that the only way to fortify his position is by developing
'Progenitor.'
1977, Monday, September 19: Umbrella researcher James Marcus combines the
'Mother Virus,' now codenamed 'Progenitor' by both Spencer and the late Edward
Ashford with mutated leech DNA to create the Tyrant-virus, or T-virus for short.

progress on the T-virus by experimenting on rodents. He realizes that he needs
humans for a more suitable experiments.

experiments. He vows that whoever discovers his secrets, that they will become
guniea pigs in his research.
1978, Friday, January 13: James Marcus's leeches--according to him--are ready.
'Those of low intellgence, they will never have the privilege of tasting this
sense of joy and satisfaction!' He now has an oppotunity to make a move for
power against Spencer.
1978, Saturday, Febuary 11: James Marcus finds that someone has been screwing
around with the lab's entrance. He decides to put Umbrella rookies Albert
Wesker and William Birkin on the case, seeing as he can only teust those two.
He also debates on whether or not to reveal the T-virus at the next Umbrella
directors' meeting.
Fongling, Leon Scott Kennedy and Carlos Oliveira are born.
1978, Saturday, July 29: Eighteen-year-old Albert Wesker and sixteen-year-old
William Birkin are reassigned to the Spencer mansion as researchers by Ozwell
Spencer himself.
1978, Febuary 3: James Marcus begins to keep a log based on his experimentation
on his leeches. He injects the T-virus into four of his leeches. He documents
that 'their will to survive leads them first to
parasitism and predation, then they breed and mulitply. Such single minded
biology makes them attractive candidates for bioweapons research. Afterwards,
no major changes observed.'
Febuary 10: Seven days passed since Marcus injected the T-virus in the leeches.
Marcus notes the leeches' rapid growth and the increase in their numbers. He
also notes that they resort to cannibalism, due to their 'ravenous appetites.'
1978, March 7: Marcus documents that when live food was brought to the leeches,
'but lost half when the live food fought back.' He also notes that they are
'beginning to exhibit group attack behavior,' and that they are stopping their
cannibalism methods.

complains about his employees' worth. However, he sees potential in both
William Birkin and Albert Wesker.

Birkin, but they are both extremely competitive. He also adds that there is
something about them that makes the both of them shady.
1978, October 7: The assistant director gets a call from Director Marcus,
ordering him to create a rivalry between Wesker and Birkin. The director is
surprised that Marcus has shown interest in something other than his research,
but promises to 'have them tearing at each other's throats.'

their father.
1983, Thursday, March 3: Alexia Ashford creates a new virus by combining the
T-virus with an ancient virus found within the remains of a queen ant. In honor
of the founder of the Ashford family, Alexia names the new virus T-Veronica.

into Alexander, making sure that the family butler doesn't wise up to their
scheming.
1983, Thursday, March 3-Friday, April 22: The T-Veronica Virus mutates
Alexander into a monster that emits toxic gases that not even the Blue Herbs
cannot cure. As a result of the failed experiment, Alfred and Alexia imprison
Alexander--now Nosferatu--deep within the Antarctic facility.
1983, May: Alexia Ashford injects the T-Veronica virus into herself and places
herself in cryogenic suspension in order for her body to co-exist with the
virus. She leaves her brother to guard her for the next 15 years. The official
story is that Alexia Ashford was killed in a laboratory accident.
1986: Sherry Birkin is born.

Sometime in 1995: Chris Redfield (by my theory) graduates from the Air Force
Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado and is commissioned as an officer in the
United States Air Force. He serves under Colonel William Guile (not true in
this case, but sounds good. Hey, it's Capcom, so anything's possible...)
Sometime later, he gets kicked out of the Air Force, possibly for
insubordination (Fanfiction websites and the Wildstorm Comics state that Chris

the operator promises to himself that if he dies, then he shall die as a human.
Tuesday, June 24: The operator is at odds with Morpheus Duvall, the supervisor
of the facility. 'He must pay more attention to worker health management and
biological weapons that anyone I have ever met.' He wants to leave, but for
some odd reason, he can't move.
Sometime between 1998 and 2000 (Exact date unknown): Fongling arrests her

to her superiors, who order her brother to be executed in the same day.
1998, early March: A mercenary who was on death row for a crime he did not
commit is granted a second chance at life. Looks like Umbrella needs a few good

medic and biochemist.
Saturday, May 9: A keeper at the Spencer Mansion plays poker with Scott, a
security guard, Steve, another researcher, and Alias, another staff member. The
keeper thinks that Steve was cheating, since he was the big winner. 'Scumbag.'

to look after. To him, it looks like a skinless gorilla (the Eliminators from
Resident Evil 0. Anyone else have a reasonable explanation?) Feeding
instructions: LIVE animals.
At the R.P.D. Irons' secretary notices her boss drooling over another cheesy
painting, which is a naked woman being hanged. Her suspicions arise then she
finds out that the painting costs more than the Chief can afford.
Monday, May 11: The supposedly deceased (and rejuvenated) James Marcus spills
the T-virus over Spencer Mansion as the first phase of his revenge plot against
Umbrella.
The keeper is awakened by Scott the guard early in the morning and is told to
wear a biohazard suit. If not, he could be infected with the T-Virus.

phones have been ripped from their outlets.
Saturday, May 16: The plant at Point 42 begins to grow at a geometric rate, due
to the chemicals (and the T-virus) in the water from the shattered tank.
The keeper hears that one of the researchers that had tried to escape was shot
and killed by the guards. The keeper goes ballistic when a chunk of rotten
flesh falls off his arm while he was scratching it.
The prisoner who befriends Robert Dorson hears his new friend's story on how he
ended up in the prison.

Henry Sarton, one of the few remaining scientists who has not fallen to the
T-virus or his zombified co-workers, makes a report on the mutant plant at
Point 42, now called Plant 42. Sarton also reports that the mutant plant has
high intelligence, since it can block the doors with its vines while it sleeps.
Wednesday, May 27: The Raccoon Times reports on the dead hiker found near the
Marble River.
The prisoner on Rockfort Island is the only one left in the barracks. Soon he
will meet the same fate as did Dorson and the other prisoners before him.

bodies for its disposal system.
The Umbrella employee notes that due to the investigation of the Arklay
facility, the testing of B.O.W. Type-Y139 was suspended. 'There's a lot of
interesting research left...Depending on the species and nurturing conditions,
only minute doses of "T" bring about remarkable changes in solidity, size,
multiplication of internal toxins and brain development.' The employee also
adds that if 'these effects can be controlled, a weapon could be produced. But
the sudden development of the shell results in corresponding fragility. Certain
areas become exceedingly weak.'
Sunday, July 19: The Umbrella employee is growing with anticipation on the
upcoming day when his team investigates the Arklay training facility. He also
adds that 'The Raccoon City newspapers and TV stations are full of reports
about bizzare murders in the suburbs. It can't be the virus, can it?'

what to do with the B.O.W.'s and the destruction of the lab.
Thursday night, July 23-Friday morning July 24: Here's where the mayhem starts.
Resident Evil 0 takes place. James Marcus attacks a train full of Umbrella
employees en route to a training facility near the Spencer Mansion. Wesker
sends Bravo Team, which consists of team leader Enrico Marini, field
scout/chemist Kenneth J. Sullivan, sharpshooter Forest Speyer, pilot Kevin
Dooly, co-pilot Edward Dewey, radioman Richard Aiken, and field medic Rebecca
Chambers to the Raccoon Forest to investigate. Their chopper crashes, and with
the exception of the pilot Kevin, searches the forest.
Not too far away, Marcus' leeches attack Billy Coen's transport vehicle,
killing the MP's and in the attack, Billy manages to escape to the train.
Rebecca Chambers finds the train and meets up with the fugitive, and the pair
team up against the onslaught of the undead and mutant leeches. Rebecca is
forced to execute the zombie that was formerly her comrade-in-arms Edward
Dewey, and the train crashes near the training facility, where they fight their
way through scores of the undead and Umbrella's monsters and test experiments.
The pair encounters a prototype Tyrant and James Marcus in the treatment plant
below the training facility. Marcus is killed and Rebecca comes across the
Spencer Mansion. Billy and Rebecca go their separate ways after Rebecca takes
his dogtags. "Officially, Billy Coen is dead." Whether or not Billy Coen lives
or not afterwards is left open to question.
Friday night, July 24-Saturday morning, July 25: Welcome to the world of
survival horror. Resident Evil/RE Remake takes place. Having failed to regain
contact with Bravo Team, Captain Wesker leads Alpha Team, which consists of
Wesker himself, weapons specialist Barry Burton, marksman Chris Redfield,
machine/lockpicking expert (and in some cases, ex-thief) Jill Valentine,
vehicle specialist Joseph Frost, and the cowardly pilot Brad Vickers. Alpha
Team comes across the remains of Bravo team's helicopter and the body of Kevin
Dooly. Joseph Frost is attacked and killed by the Cerberus (zombie dogs), Brad,
living up to his name, ditches his teammates, and the survivors are chased into
the mansion.
The team separate and discover the grisly fate of their teammates: Kenneth
Sullivan became zombie food, Forest Speyer was attacked and killed by infected
crows, only to become a member of the undead himself, Richard Aiken was
poisoned by Yawn (giant mutant snake). Alpha Team blasted their way through an
army of the undead, monsters, an overgrown plant project gone berserk, and the
monster that was formerly Lisa Trevor. Along the way, they find a badly injured
Enrico Marini, who is assassinated before he can tell who the traitor is among
the S.T.A.R.S. members.
In the meantime, Wesker makes his own plans. Using a special type of T-virus
(minus the zombie effect) he injects it into himself and sets out to cover his
escape by sending the Tyrant against Chris and the others. Jill Valentine is
successful in taking down the Tyrant for the first time after it supposedly
kills Wesker. The self-destruct sequence is activated and Barry, Rebecca, Chris
and Jill head for the heliport, where they signal Brad to airlift them out of
there.
The Tyrant--now pissed off--has other plans for them. He makes an explosive
entrance at the heliport and attacks the surviving S.T.A.R.S. members. Brad
evens the odds by dropping an anti-tank Rocket Launcher on the heliport. Chris
gets to it first and in one shot, reduces the 'ultimate bio-weapon' into bloody
chunks. The surviving S.T.A.R.S. members escape the Spencer mansion, just
seconds before the self-destruct mechanism is activated, and the mansion, along
with its labs, are destroyed. Albert Wesker escapes by another route and now
has a serious vendetta against the surviving S.T.A.R.S. members.
Sunday, July 26: Chris Redfield makes a report on the events the night before
to Chief Irons. He tells of the zombies and monsters within the Spencer
Mansion, the deaths of his fellow S.T.A.R.S. teammates, Umbrella's involvement
in illegal experiments, Wesker's betrayal and death, and their escape from the
mansion. He finishes the report by stating a federal investigation on Umbrella
should be initiated immediately.
Wednesday, July 29: The number of bodies in the Dead Factory continues to rise,
and the disposal system is beginning to fail. Under these inhumane conditions,
the antibiotics are useless and several of the workers are infected. The
factory manager begins to keep a loaded gun nearby, always saving the last
bullet for himself. 'I want to weep. I don't want to die here. I swear that
I'll lose my mind if I imagine how painful the death will be...'
1998, Friday, August 7: Jill Valentine has physically recovered from the
Spencer Mansion case, but is still haunted by the deaths of her teammates.
Saturday, August 8: Chris tries once again to get Chief Irons to listen to him
and open a case against Umbrella, but being on Umbrella's payroll, Irons turns
a blind eye to the impending investigation. To make things worse, the majority
of Raccoon's citizens are working for Umbrella.
Sunday, August 9: Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service commando Nicholai
Ginovaef submits his report concerning the destruction of the Spencer mansion
and its laboratory.
A Sheena Island factory worker has serious doubts on the tactics that his boss
has concerning the experiments at the laboratory.
Thursday, August 13: Jill Valentine notices a change of mood in Chris Redfield.
He constantly causes trouble, and it came to a point when he decks Officer
Elran of the Boy's Crime Department for accidentally splashing him in the face
with hot coffee.

of the night and Chris shows her confidential information regarding the G-virus.
Monday, August 16: The sewer manager notices that Chief Irons is in a bad mood.
When he tries to cheer him up, the manager finds himself staring down the
barrel of Irons' gun. The manager manages to calm the chief down...for now.
Irons' mood changes for the better when William Birkin places a hefty deposit
of $10,000 in the Chief's bank account. In exchange for the money, Irons has to
keep the S.T.A.R.S. from snooping around in Umbrella's affairs.
Tuesday, August 17: The Raccoon Police Department begin to get reports on
'strange monsters' lurking around Raccoon City. Chris realizes that Umbrella is
up to its old tricks again.
Friday, August 20: A teenage boy from the Republic of Congo is kidnapped by
Umbrella agents and is sent to Sheena Island, an Umbrella-run city which
specializes in producing Tyrants en masse.
Saturday, August 21: William Birkin orders the sewer manager to temporary cease
all operations in the sewers, seeing that the police have launched an
investigation on Umbrella's activities.
Tuesday, August 24: With the help of Jill Valentine and Barry Burton, Chris
Redfield finds more info on the G-virus. A course of plan is in action as Chris
decides to go ahead to Europe, while Barry sends his family to Canada for
safety. Jill, on the other hand, decides to stay in town in order to scrounge
up some more info on Umbrella.
Friday, August 25: A Raccoon P.D. night watchman is inside the police station's
clock tower. Chief Irons finds him and gives the watchman the third degree for
being in the clock tower, rather than not being at his post.
Monday, August 28: Umbrella sends a dismissal notice to Morpheus Duvall,
notifying him of his termination, saying that he was responsible for the
T-virus outbreak at the Spencer mansion. Duvall swears revenge.
1998: Tuesday, September 1: Thirty-one days left before the destruction of
Raccoon City. The mercenary who was saved from execution has completed his
training, which lasted six months.
Saturday, September 5: The Congolese boy held captive on Sheena Island finds
out that teenagers between the ages of 16 to 20 were kidnapped from all over
the globe by the Umbrella Corporation as test subjects. The citizens of Sheena
Island are working for Umbrella one way or another.
Sunday, September 6: Vincent Goldman and another member of the Umbrella
Corporation are sent to Sheena Island. Vincent kills the other guy, so that way
he is appointed Commander of the island.
Sheena Island sewer caretaker Andy Holland writes in his diary concerning
Vincent Goldman. He heard rumors about Vincent's coldheartedness, but pays it
no mind.
Thursday, September 10: Twenty days left before the destruction of Raccoon
City. The Director at Raccoon Hospital makes his report on the 'cannibal
disease' that's beginning to appear in the city.
On Sheena Island, the Congolese lad suspects that his and the other prisoners'
food is being drugged.
Lott Klein, the son of one of the researchers, is told by Commander Goldman and
his father that the children brought here will be turned into ‘decent people’
by Umbrella.
Tuesday, September 15: Sixteen days left before Raccoon's destruction. Jill
Valentine resigns from the Raccoon Police Department. She continues to
investigate Umbrella, while at the same time laying low.
The mercenary is forced to cut his vacation short as his U.B.C.S. unit is
called to action. According to the mercenary, there are two separate teams of
paramilitary teams; one group to combat corporate terrorism and V.I.P.
kidnappings, and the second group--which he is a member of--is a special unit
of nightmen trained to handle 'illegal products' and the problems that they
cause.
Joel Allman, Vice-President of the U.S. Branch of Umbrella sends a memo to
William Birkin concerning a shortage of chemicals at the Antarctic base. Allman
requests a donation of chemicals to be transported to the Antarctic base, and
reassures Birkin that the Ashford's reputation is damaged beyond repair.
William Birkin finds out that Umbrella plans to steal his G-virus from him. He
instructs Chief Irons to find and arrest anyone who is doing anything
suspicious in the city.
Friday, September 18: Thirteen days left before Raccoon's destruction. Another
person suffering from the 'cannibal disease' is sent to Raccoon Hospital. The
hospital director wonders if there is a cure for the disease.
Saturday, September 19: Twelve days left before Raccoon's destruction. The
night watchman that Chief Irons yelled at meets Thomas, who works at the sewer
plant behind the R.P.D. Like the watchman, he is a chess fanatic, but wonders
why his new friend keeps on scratching himself most of the time. '...does he
have some sort of skin disease or his he just rude?'
Sunday, September 20: Eleven days left before Raccoon's destruction. R.P.D.
officer Neil Carson comes across a strange-looking person at the outskirts of
the city. The person ran off, but left behind some plastic explosive, handgun
ammo, and an infrared scope that's broken.
On Sheena Island, Andy Holland hears rumors about Commander Goldman's inhumane
experiments on the kidnapped children.
Monday, September 21: The Congolese boy discovers that several of his friends
were taken to 'the factory on the mountain.' While at a nightclub, he overhears
some of the workers talking about Commander Goldman's horrific experiments. The
Congolese boy and his friends plot their escape.
Tuesday, September 22: Nine days left before Raccoon's destruction. Umbrella's
French Research and Division director Christine Henri orders Hunk and his unit
to steal the G-virus from the defiant William Birkin and deliver it to the
French R and D at Loire Village. They enter the lab without a hitch and
confront Birkin, who refuses to give up his work. A mistake on Birkin's part
and a commando with an itchy trigger finger ends up with Birkin being mortally
wounded by the commando unit (What goes around, comes around, Birkin. Serves
you right.), and his G-virus samples are taken.
Birkin, who has a hidden sample of the G-virus on himself, leads it into a
syringe and injects it into himself. The G-virus revives Birkin, but mutates
him into a Tyrant-like G-Type monster. Birkin pursues his assailants in a
murderous rampage and slaughters them. He then stuffs down more G-virus samples
and the sewer rats ingest the broken T-virus samples, thus leading to the
full-scale outbreak at Raccoon City. Hunk manages to escape, but is knocked
unconscious.
(My guess that the rats were probably immune to the T-virus. If they managed to
survive the Black Death in Medieval Europe, then a man-made virus would
possibly have no effect on them.)
Wednesday, September 23: Eight days left before Raccoon's destruction. This is
the beginning of the end for the city and its citizens. Chief Irons finally
reaches the breaking point as he hears about the zombie invasion that's
starting to take place. He vows to himself to kill everyone who is infected.
Thursday, September 24: Seven days left before Raccoon's destruction. Raccoon
City Mayor Michael Warren places the city under martial law.
Chief Irons plans to sabotage his police force's efforts in containing the
zombie menace. He spreads confusion in both the police department and the
general public. Second, he makes sure that there is no outside help and that
all escape routes in the city are barricaded. Third, he has his police force
spread the ammo throughout the building.
R.P.D. officer Marvin Branagh makes a report on two jewels stolen from City
Hall. He has to suspend the case, due to the lack of police officers and the
imminent zombie threat.
Saturday, September 26: Five days left before Raccoon's destruction. The night
watchman sees that his friend Thomas isn't feeling too well, and tells him to
return home and rest. He also realizes that he himself is not feeling well
either.
Morning. Marvin Branagh reports a restaurant owner who had one of the two
missing gems. The owner was shot after showing symptoms of the 'cannibal
disease' and Branagh has to suspend the case once again.
Round One: The Raccoon Police Department is under siege by the undead and the
police gets their arses handed to them and many of the civilians hiding inside
the police station are killed. (Sorry. A little 'Braveheart' humor there.)
During the battle one of the officers, David Ford is rescued by one of the
marksmen named Meyer. Instead of returning the favor when Meyer was in danger,
Officer Ford chickened out and ran, leaving Meyer to be slaughtered.
The Raccoon Hospital is in even worse shape than the police station. Zombies
had killed the majority of the hospital staff, several of the floors are
inaccessible and the director, who is now showing symptoms of the 'cannibal
disease,' is forced to close the hospital down. '...I know that it's too late
for me. I am beginning to feel that same itchy and hungry desire that all of my
patients felt. It's too late for me...'
The sadistic Chief Irons has a 'change of heart' and decides to hunt down the
remaining civilians and police officers. One of his targets includes Mayor
Warren's daughter, whom Claire Redfield finds sprawled over Irons' desk three
days from now. '...I'm going to enjoy my new trophy. Yes, frozen forever in the
pose I choose to give her...' Sick bastard.
The remaining police officers plan on finding the remaining ammunition and
escaping the police station. There's just one small problem though: the guy
with the keycard went missing since the attack on the R.P.D.
Several units of the Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service, led by
Lieutenant Mikhail Victor and Sergeant Nicholai Ginovaef, are dispatched to
Raccoon City. Despite being better prepared than the ill-fated police force,
their numbers are quickly decimated and the remaining mercenaries finds
themselves on the run, including Tyrell Patrick, Murphy Seeker, and Carlos
Oliveira.
Sunday, September 27: Four days left before Raccoon's destruction. Round Two:
The Raccoon police force and its S.W.A.T. team take to the streets to try and
stop the zombie menace. Using their cars as barriers, they open fire on the
advancing undead, but the zombies simply barge through the police, forcing them
to retreat back to the Raccoon Police Department, where they barricade
themselves in for a standoff. They are then killed one by one by the undead,
monsters, or by Chief Irons himself.
(Looks like they haven't been watching any of George Romero's zombie movies,
otherwise they would have known to aim for the head ;P.)
Twelve more police officers are killed when the undead break through the
western barricade of the Raccoon Police Department. A new monster, dubbed the
'Licker,' due to its lance-like tongue, which is 'capable of piercing a human
torso in an instant,' kills three more police officers. Let's face it, the
Raccoon Police Department is seriously fucked here.
Inside a well-fortified room, the unstable David Ford, thought to have been
dead, plans on painting the ceiling with his brains with his Mossberg shotgun
once he runs out of booze.
Nighttime. A mercenary and his partner named Campbell arrive at the rendezvous
point, the Saint Michael Clock Tower. They managed to stay alive by stealing
their wounded comrades' weapons and using civilians as decoys, something that
one of the mercenaries doesn't like doing. The mercenary, who is more
sympathetic, takes a liking to one of the survivors, a teenage girl, who
reminds him of his younger sister.
Monday, September 28: Three days left until Raccoon's destruction. Dawn. One of
the Umbrella mercenaries finally loses it. He would much rather be back on
death row, since to him, it was a 'heavenly asylum compared to this place,' and
proceeds to commit suicide. Jill Valentine comes across his body later on
during the day.
Sometime during the mission, Mikhail Victor is seriously injured. Whether he
was injured by the Brain/Drain Deimos or survived a botched assassination
attempt by Nicholai is left to question.
Four more police officers are attacked and killed. The remaining police
officers, now down to four, plan to escape through the sewers. They obviously
did not make it.
The two mercenaries at the clock tower prepare to escape. The more sympathetic
merc wishes to take the girl with him, but the girl refuses to leave without
her father. Campbell wants his buddy to ditch the girl, but the kind mercenary
refuses to do so. All three are killed, the mercenary protecting the girl to
the very end. Jill Valentine and Carlos Oliveira will come across their bodies
while exploring the clock tower later that night.
First Half of Resident Evil 3 Nemesis takes place. Jill Valentine decides to
make her 'last escape' from Raccoon City. She literally blasts her way through
her apartment building and hides inside a warehouse. Finding another survivor,
a wannabe novelist named Dario Russo, Russo basically tells the former
S.T.A.R.S. member to shove it and refuses to leave the warehouse. She comes
across the injured Brad Vickers hiding inside Bar Jack and is told of the
monstrosity that is hunting S.T.A.R.S. members. "He's after S.T.A.R.S. members.
There's no escape!"
Jill shoots her way to the Raccoon Police Department, where she encounters
Brad, who looked liked, as what Pres. Evil says, 'someone dropped a truck on
him.' The Tyrant-like monster that Brad was ranting about earlier makes its
appearance and kills Brad in Jill's view. As the monster turns on Jill,
chanting "S.T.A.R.S.," like a mantra, Jill dashes into the police station for
safety. While she is inside, Brad Vickers joins the ranks of the undead.
The resourceful woman searches the Raccoon Police Department for any survivors.
When she finds none, she manages to find better weapons inside the S.T.A.R.S.
Office. Back on the first floor, she encounters the trenchcoated monster again,
this time it is armed with a HUGE rocket launcher. Jill escapes the creature's
murderous advances and heads into Downtown Raccoon City. While Jill is
exploring the city, zombies kill Dario Russo and a young woman. Jill will come
across their bodies upon returning to the warehouse to check up on Russo.
Inside the Grill 13 restaurant, Jill meets Carlos Oliveira and avoids the
monster yet again. Jill ditches the monster again and comes across the injured
Mikhail Victor and the cool Nicholai Ginovaef, as well as Carlos inside a cable
car. Jill agrees to join forces with the Umbrella mercenaries in order to reach
the clock tower. After a few close calls, they find parts for the cable car to
get it moving.
Jill's stalker makes another appearance on the cable car, and Mikhail, using a
incendiary grenade, meets an honorable death by sacrificing himself to allow
Jill and Carlos to escape, but end up crashing at the clock tower. After
repairing the bell, Jill signals the rescue chopper to the clock tower, which
is promptly destroyed by the creature's rocker launcher. With its tentacle, the
monster infects Jill with the T-virus and in the ensuing battle, Jill sends the
creature packing. Carlos comes to Jill's aid as she passes out and takes her to
the tower's chapel.
Tuesday night, September 29-Wednesday morning, September 30: Resident Evil 2
takes place. While Jill Valentine is unconscious from the effects of the
T-virus, two more unlucky souls join the zombie block party at Raccoon City.
The first person is Leon Scott Kennedy, an idealistic rookie police officer on
his way to work at the Raccoon Police Department (it's his first day on the
job!). The second is Claire Redfield, a 19-year-old college student/motorcycle
enthusiast who is in town looking for her older brother, former S.T.A.R.S.
marksman Chris Redfield.
Instead, shortly after arriving into town from separate routes, both find
themselves on the run from Raccoon's zombified populace. They commandeer an
abandoned police cruiser and head for the police station. A surprise zombie
attack, a car crash, and one exploding tanker trailer later, Leon and Claire
find themselves separated, with Leon being the closest to the police station.
(I'm going by Claire A-Leon B scenario. Makes more sense. Too many plot holes
in Leon A-Claire-B.)
Claire meets Robert Kendo, the gun shop owner (and brother of Joseph Kendo,
designer of the S.T.A.R.S. Samurai Edge Custom Beretta handgun, seen in the RE
remake as a hidden weapon and again in RE 3 as Jill's default weapon), who
unfortunately meets a bad end at the hands of the zombies and escapes through
the back door. While she is making her way through the mazelike streets, Leon
arrives at the police station's back door. He witness a botched rescue attempt
and enters the station. Claire, on the other hand, arrives at the R.P.D.'s
front doorstep and puts the now-zombified Brad Vickers' tortured soul to rest
once and for all.
While inside the police station, Leon and Claire encounter several characters,
each with their own agendas. Leon crosses paths with the mysterious Ada Wong,
who is looking for her boyfriend, a jailed reporter named Ben Bertolucci, and
on several occasions, narrowly eludes the Neo-Tyrant known only as 'Mr. X.'
(Writer's note: Resident Evil is not the only game who had a character named
Mr. X. Aside from Metal Gear Solid 2 (the robo-ninja), the very first Mr. X was
the Tommy gun-toting end boss from the Streets of Rage series. A little trivia
there.)
Claire, on the other hand, encounters the dying Marvin Branagh, Sherry Birkin,
the daughter of William and Annette Birkin, and Brian Irons, the screwloose
police chief, leering over the dead body of Mayor Warren's daughter. Later on,
